Xbox Brings Cloud Gaming to LG-Powered Cars With Native In-Vehicle App

The move extends Xbox Cloud Gaming to LG’s webOS-based car infotainment systems for passenger use.

Overview

  • Microsoft and LG announced a native Xbox app for vehicles running LG’s Automotive Content Platform, enabling game streaming on in-car screens.
  • Access requires an Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription, a vehicle data plan, and a compatible Bluetooth controller.
  • Streaming is restricted to passengers in accordance with driving safety regulations.
  • LG’s platform is available in Kia’s EV3 in Europe and is coming to the EV4, EV5, and the new Sportage, but Xbox has not provided a vehicle compatibility list or rollout timing.
  • The in-car experience uses Xbox Cloud Gaming (Beta) with titles such as Gears of War: Reloaded, Forza Horizon 5, and Obsidian’s upcoming The Outer Worlds 2.
